Playlist’s Song Pairing:
"Fever Dreamer", a dancefloor banger by British musician SG Lewis, is a collaboration with Charlotte Day Wilson and Channel Tres. Crafted in Lewis's LA studio, the track captures the euphoric signature of his music. A chance visit from Channel Tres led to the spontaneous addition of the song's second verse, an example of the dynamic creativity in music.
The track mirrors the 'Mediævum' Vernatsch with its blend of summer beats and funk. Like the wine's crisp expression of terroir, the song explores SG Lewis's diverse soundscape. The lyrics, "Every time you touch me, I get the fever," pulse with the same passion that dances in the wine. And much like the song's lively beats, the wine's light and perfumed character swirls playfully on the palate.
